The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 341

The lunch was scrumptious. After their stomachs were full, Susan and Julian then went to take a nap.

Seizing her chance, Madam Shaw pulled Serenity to one side.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Madam Shaw?" Serenity asked, not knowing what Madam Shaw was doing.

"I know what you're up to," Madam Shaw hissed as she stared coldly at Serenity. "You'd better don't do anything stupid. I'll be watching you." 4

Madam Shaw's accusation completely threw Serenity for a loop. After a long while, she sighed and said, "No offense to you Madam Shaw, but my only purpose in coming here is to take care of Susan. If that is the motive you're talking about, then yes, that's the reason why I came here. Other than that, no."

"Hah!" Madam Shaw sneered, "Julian and Susan are too young. You can hide from them, but you can’t fool my eyes. Just you remember, I'm watching you."

After that, Madam Shaw turned around and walked away, leaving Serenity standing speechless on the spot.

She truly did not know what kind of motive she had. Feeling helpless, Serenity shook her head and returned to her room.

Indeed, she was jealous of Susan, and her resentment reached its greatest height the moment George and Luna discovered that Susan was the daughter that they lost 25 years ago. The smile that appeared on their faces during that time was the kind of smile that she had never seen before.

Was this kind of jealousy not very normal for a girl like her? No matter how jealous she was, she would only give some snappish remarks about Susan, and that was it. There was no way she would go to the extent and try to harm her.

Putting everything aside, she was her sister.

Serenity lifted her eyebrow. She did not know how other people would do in her circumstances, but the Wrights were the ones who raised her. George and Luna never discriminated against her even though she was adopted, so there was no way she could never bring herself to bite the hand that fed her.

A smile crossed Serenity's face as she decided to push Madam Shaw's remark to the back of her mind.

She did not care about what other people thought. She was just going to do what she had to do.

In the next few days, Madam Shaw indeed kept a watchful eye on her, both overtly and covertly. Even Mama Jean could not help and ask Susan in secret why Madam Shaw kept staring at Serenity.

Julian and Susan had talked to Madam Shaw before, but she would not listen. She still acted as usual and kept watching Serenity.

Left with no other alternative, Susan could only apologize to Serenity.

"I’m sorry, Serenity," Susan said softly, "Mom has watched too many soap operas, she..."

"It's fine," Serenity interrupted, offering her a grin." Honestly, she was right about me."

"Huh?" Susan was stunned.

Looking at Susan, Serenity said plainly, "Do you know how jealous I was when you first came back? I have been the Wrights for so long, and I have never seen Mom smile like that before. For so many years, that is the happiest smile I have seen on Mom's face. I don’t understand, Susan, I truly don't. Anna and I have been trying our best to cheer Mom up. None of us succeeded, and yet you can do it with ease."

Serenity was so serious that Susan did not know how t o reply.

She threw Susan a glance and a wide grin hopped onto her face. "At that time, I told myself. I must take a good look at you and see for myself whether or not you deserve to be one of the Wrights."

"Then?" Susan asked curiously, "What do you think of me now?"

Her ruddy lips curved up, and they looked as pleasant as a rose. "Do you know when I started to recognize you?"

"When was that?" "When you came to Skyking City," Serenity replied flatly, "During that time, the Wrights were in the mire. Everyone was trying to pull us down and nobody was willing to give us a hand. Then, you showed up. You went through the tribulation with us, and that alone is enough to change my view on you. Starting from that moment, I swore to myself that I'd treat you like my own sister. I'll take care of you and protect you from harm."

Susan blinked her eyes and it took her a long while to come around to her senses. "But we were born on the same day..."
